Fishing Charters

“We had non stop action and Ryan was a great captain! He cleaned our catch and we ate it the same day at a local restaurant! We also saw some dolphins and caught 9-10 different species of fish.”brockhamre, Minnesota (TripAdvisor.com)

Captain Cristina

Cristina is probably who you will talk to if you call to book your charter or ask general questions. Cristina is a native Floridian, a biologist by trade and has a passion for the environment and getting others out on the water. She is the owner of Paradise Charters as well as a couple top rated tour and charter companies in the area. She doesn't guide our fishing charters but you may see her out on the water while out fishing with us. Outside of managing the companies, a lot of her time is spent as a volunteer biologist in the local waters of Fort Myers Beach and serving on environmental committees. She has been in the charter business since 2004 and will provide you with fun, safe, worry free boating experiences and the best crew around.

Captain Ryan

He knows how to work with the tides and loves fishing the backwaters along the mangrove shorelines, popping bait over grass beds, and casting near oyster bars.

He is also a certified Coastal Florida master naturalist and loves to share this beautiful paradise surrounding Fort Myers Beach with you.
